There was 400 on it saturday on the dyno. But I agree it will lossen up over time. Also, most I have seen with the hp in or around the 600 mark have less of a torque curve and less pk tq so I just figure this is a little more balanced??

With the cam profile I am running it isn't as bad as a setup like yours. That is why they run .002 cold lash so that way it is dependable as a hydraulic. The only thing I am thinking is springs after 2 years.

1st time out ran a 6.94 @ 99 with a 1.517 60 ft.
Car had 3/4 full gas tank and in full street trim except some wore out drag radials. Spun all thru 1st with a launch at 5k and trying to shift to 4th, wasn't sure if the rpm would make it. And this is on a lowered car with factory shocks and little to no squat.
This was my first time at an 1/8 mile track. Any guesses as to what it should run in the 1/4?? Thanks guys.

I'd guess the car would pick up a ton over the norm in the final 1/8th if traction is that bad once it hooks up and runs out. From the 60' though it seems like its hooking pretty good. My best at Mooresville with 440rwhp was 7.02@100 but im sure my cars 300+lbs lighter. Not sure what it runs now that I have 20 more rwhp and a better hp/tq curve.

What gears you guys running? I have 4:10's not sure but I am pretty sure that was hurting me in the 1/8.
Trust me, there is some more in this setup. We feel this is a 6.6/6.7 car all day long.

I have 3.73's with a 28" tall tire. You will get 6.6/6.7 out of it. What heads are you running.

Actually I wasn't the driver for that run (actually had someone that knew what they were doing to run the car). Weight of the car without driver as it sits was 3520. Running TFS 245's
And yes fastest mph was 102 last night.
